Dear CAHRI Colleagues,
I hope you are well. It was so good to meet some of you in-person in Winnipeg at the Civil Society Forum on Human Rights in Canada over the past few days.
Further to our recent conversations about whether it would be desirable or feasible to associate or affiliate CAHRI with the FHSS and on this basis collectively attend CONGRESS as a group, please see the relevant developments below, in case you did not receive the original email from FHSS.
We should take account of this next time it comes up for discussion at a CAHRI meeting.
Meanwhile, take care and all the best.
SBM
